just signed up here, fairly new to wet shaving but not new to shaving in general.
Just had my first shave with a real straight razor (brand new Dovo 5/8 full hollow) this morning after getting some techniquie down with a Parker SR1 half DE holder and pretty happy with the results.
Only thing is that the full-hollow edge seemed to catch more on some thicker/longer stubble, and I'm wondering if I should maybe look into a wedge for Mondays since I'd prefer not to have to shave on weekends and I'm looking to get rid of as much "disposable" gear as I can eliminate from the daily routine.
